With almost 30 years experience cumulatively, the VCN | webteam offers a comprehensive repertoire of web services for Vancouver-area non-profits. We can help you create an effective and professional website – or help you upgrade your current site. Non-profits collaborate closely with the webteam so your message is presented effectively and efficiently.

Clients often receive comprehensive web packages. Our websites for non-profits are designed to be easy to navigate and easy to manage with our content management system (CMS). Our websites are designed with Web GUI CMS – allowing for easy maintenance and updating.  However, sometimes a good website isn't enough. That's why we also offer website optimization through SEO marketing to garner more visibility for your association by making them.

The importance of a professional website

Given our reliance on technology, non-profits should capitalize on the Internet and create a presence online. It is increasingly important to make that presence stand out from other sides and organizations offering similar services. A professional website offers a valuable resource for potential volunteers, donors and those who need or want to access services you provide. Organizations benefit from constant accessibility and increased public awareness.

4 steps to creating a website

Non-profits we serve are involved in every step of the design process. Our four-step process takes your vision and idea to a user-friendly and distinctive website. The comprehensive process also includes training on how to use and maintain the website on the long-term.
  • consultation phase: The webteam meets with you and discusses ideas and options for your web presence while evaluating your needs. Following the consultation, we create a projected timeline with details on what is going to be done, how it will be done with a proposed quote.
  • design creation: With the approved proposal, a mock-up will be created for the client to be reviewed and approved.
  • building phase: After the design mock-up has been approved, work starts on building the website.
  • project completion: Congratulations! You now have a professional website up and running. Prior to the website launch, the webteam will do a final review and train your organization on how to use your new website.
